RAIN SHOWERS FORCE POSTPONEMENT OF THE 19TH ANNUAL DICK GAINES MEMORIAL

A second round of rain showers at the completion of the Kelsey Chevrolet Sprint heat races left standing water on the racing surface and forced the remainder of the evening's racing program to be postponed to a later date. Any patrons who purchased tickets to this event can redeem those armbands at any other event this season. If the event is higher priced, you can exchange and pay the difference. Check the Lawrenceburg Speedway website and Facebook page for more information.

Promoter Dave Rudisell and his track crew were able to overcome the heavy thunderstorm just prior to the gates opening and get the night's racing program started on time. Some of the fastest laps of the season were turned in the sprint car heats where both Nick Bilbee and Justin Owen broke the 14-second barrier with laps of 13.928 and 13.934 seconds respectively, averaging speeds of over 97 miles per hour!

Since all the sprint heats were completed, those drivers will receive show points and any heat race points earned. Modified, pure stock and hornet drivers that were entered and on site will receive 50 show points only.
